I'm a regular but I've nc as know mnters in rl.
Dh is a keen amateur photographer, before ds I posed for him several times. When I got pregnant though I started feeling uneasy about it, my concerns were things like ds finding them when he is older (some are not just erotic, but rather pornographic) or about how would I feel if a possible dd was doing that with her partner. I don't know if this is just a prude long lasting side effect of nuns education, or what.
I don't get the 'It makes me confident/empowered' thing, although I feel I 'should' feel flattered dh still finds me beautiful/attractive enough to photograph. Notice the 'should', I feel beauty is overrated and photos of ugly things can be just as interesting.
Gosh I ramble, sorry. I guess I am posting in feminism because I feel i am missing that perspective.
Thanks
